Re: Fledging Wednesday July22 two chicks had fledged when we got there,the male and a female. we knew one was the male cause we could see the white tape left leg. couldn't see the female legs ,so don't know which one.
Thursday july 23 only 1 chick in nest box,the other must have fledged sometime before 0830. the one in nest box fledged a few mins. after 0830, I saw her leave the box, I think she was the large one, she flew very strongly up almost to the bottom of the tower and around the corner and out of sight
BirdLover:
Ugh, such a date!!!
Thanks, C. I wasn't quite sure. I'm old :P

The Peregrine Chick:
Hey Brandon Fledge Watchers, sounds like you and the chicks are doing great - nice to hear the chicks are smart enough to keep their heads down when the weather turns bad.
First fledge was the 21st, correct? By the end of the first week (per chick) your gang should well be on their way to starting to chase their parents for prey and pretty much out of the really (really) dangerous part of fledging .... accidents can still happen, but the first 7-10 days are definitely the more dangerous ...
